Mounting the Chassis
Environmental and Power Considerations
Consider your anticipated chassis weight (with modules installed), power and
ventilation requirements, benchtop use and rackmounting options to ensure
safety and optimize access to test and control instrumentation.
Weight
The 2-slot chassis weighs 7.7 kg (17 lbs), including ESM but with no
other modules installed. With two instrument modules, it can weigh 15.7 kg (35
lbs).
The 5-slot chassis weighs 13.3 kg (29 lbs) with ESM, and can weigh 33.3 kg (73
lbs) fully loaded. It is typically used rackmounted, but can also be used on the
bench, with proper support and ventilation.
AC Input
The chassis will operate on 100-240VAC, with input frequency from
50-60 Hz. Maximum input power consumption is 800 VA for the M9502A, 1280
VA for the M9505A.
.
Ventilation
The chassis is designed to dissipate 200W per instrument slot.
Depending on load, the chassis and power supply fans may exhaust significant
heat. Whether used on the benchtop or rackmounted, operate in a well
ventilated environment and allow 2” (5 cm) clearance around both sides of the
chassis.
Rackmounting the Chassis
An optional rack mount kit is available from Keysight for each chassis. The kits
include mounting instructions.
Avoid overloading an electrical circuit. Ensure your power supply matches the
AC Input requirements listed above.
In case you need to power down the chassis in an emergency, make sure that
you have clear and quick access to the primary disconnect. If the chassis is
rackmounted, this primary disconnect can be a power system on the rack or
the detachable cord.
Do not block the vent holes on the chassis. This overheats and damages components. Leave a gap of
at least 2” (50mm) around all vent holes and fan exhaust areas.
